Hello all,

Can someone please explain to me the purpose of the CAS user account that is used to communicate with the Domain Controller?

Thx,

David

CAS account has been set for encryption. Add a CAS account on the Windows 2000/2003 AD server with which the CAS will communicate, and configure encryption parameters to support the Linux operating system of the CAS.
